I hope to have a little time to play with it and understand it a bit better. They seem to have support for up to 4.0 in some of the files, so maybe they actually have a freebsd user in their group. It's big and(on my p90) a bit slow, but I hope that I'll be able to get just the bits I need to make it a bit faster. 'festival' itself seems to totoally skip the word "FreeBSD" when I asked it to say (from the manual) [you need..] A Unix machine, Festival has compiled and run on Suns (SunOS and Solaris), FreeBSD, Linux, SGIs, HPs and DEC Alphas but should be portable to any standard Unix machine. julian To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-hackers" in the body of the message
